Marcus is a communication coach for parents of preteens (ages 10-14). He helps them show up and maintain a meaningful relationship with their child during these crucial formative years.

He works with parents who value doing hard things and want to connect with their tween before it's too late to bridge the gap.

With a multicultural background himself—born to a Filipino mother and a Bahamian father—Marcus finds particular joy in supporting families communicate across generational and cultural divides.

His own diverse upbringing, coupled with over decade and a half of international experience across East Asia, Europe, Southeast Asia, the Middle East, and South America, has given him unique insights into cross-cultural communication.

Now he's on a mission to globally mend parent-child relationships through effective communication and shared storytelling using 'The SHOW UP Framework'.

"The SHOW UP Framework" stands for:

🆂 — Start with a Strong Identity (All Action Starts from Identity)
🅷 — Hold Space for Collaboration (For Critical Thinking and Collaborative Problem Solving)
🅾 — Open Up Communication (Pass on Values w/o Being Preachy)
🆆 — Wonder and Explore this World Together (Project Based Living)

🆄🅿 — Unveil Potential Together
